7 ( 'It Goes Like This' CM A's Concert A Double Treat By DAN WYANT Of the Register-Guard Piano rccitalists visit Eu gene with some frequency. Symphony orchestras appear here, though less often. But seldom do Eugene Civic Mu sic Assn. audiences have the double pleasure of enjoying a brilliant pianist playing a con certo with an outstanding symphony. ' Perhaps that Is why Thurs day night's appearance of the San Antonio Symphony, with guest soloist David Bar-Man, drew such a warm response from a CMA audience of more than 5,000. Bar-Illan, gifted young Is raeli pianist, was featured in Franz Liszt's "Concerto No. 1," a majestic work of four movements, ample in scope to display the soloist's brilliant technique and sensitive inter play with the orchestra. Other than the Liszt con certo, the orchestra concen trated on the works of modern composers, offering as its fea tured symphony, Sergei Prok ofiev's "Symphony No. 5." The other program selections in cluded "Overture 1947," com posed by the University of . Oregon's Homer Keller, and "El Salon Mexico," by Aaron Copeland. Three encores, two by contemporary American composers and the third, the march from "The Love for Three Oranges," by Prokofiev, completed the concert. The CMA board of direc tors was offered a choice of several programs in advance of the concert and selected one largely of modern works, CMA President Arthur Bailey said Friday, with the feeling that it would be appropriate to combine a program of new er compositions with the ap pearance of an orchestra new to Eugene. If applause is a measure of acceptance, the programming was a success. Conductor Victor Alessandro called Keller, a former fellow student, to take a bow from the audience at the conclusion of the playing of his overture, a short, rhythmic work that employs an almost percussive use of strings. Prokofiev's Fifth Symphony, written when Russia was in the depths of World War II, is a massive composition, tu multuous in most of its ap proach, an exciting work to hear and even watch the orchestra play. X WANT TO ) 1 1 (Register-Guard photo) Two little people with big fiddles devote their attention to the expert instruction of Irwin Hoffman, conductor of the Vancouver, B.C., Symphony Orchestra, in a rehearsal at Eugene's Condon School Friday morning. The "little people" are Harry Briley, 9, Twin Oaks School bass player, and Jane Wilde, 10, Adams School cello player. They're among about 500 youngsters taking part in a massive Festival of Strings in McArthur Court at the University of Oregon at 4 p.m. Saturday. The con cert is co-sponsored by Eugene and Springfield public schools and university. Thursday night's' audience achieved something of a first here when, correctly, not a single person broke into ap plause between the four move ments of the symphony. Encores, in addition to the Prokofiev march, included a ' portion of a symphonic suite by J. Clifton Williams, of the University of Texas, and Ho ward Hanson's "Children's Dance" from his opera, "Mer ry Mount." Supporters of the San An tonio Orchestra rank it among the top 10 symphonies in the United States and it would be hard to dispute their claim. Alessandro, Texas-born him self, enjoys an evergrowing reputation. A gracious direc tor, he used a short baton part of the time Thursday night, conducted with open, expres sive hands at other times. He told CMA board mem bers he was amazed at the ex cellent behavior of some 6,300 children who attended a spe cial morning concert and was delighted by the warm recep tion the orchestra received Thursday night.

In the middle of the meeting Tribunal Chairman Kenneth Wilson resigned, saying, "I can't sit here as an individual any more and make judgments on one group while the whole system is guilty." The tribunal session followed what the Emerald described as an emergency meeting of the IFC President's Council Wednesday night A formal statement released at that meet- UO Has No Plans To Force Action On Recovering 'O' Unless more University of Oregon students indicate a de sire for the return of the big metal "O" stolen a month ago from Skinner Butte, the school administration will take no ac tion in the matter, a university spokesman said Friday. Si Ellingson, director of the student union, who said he could speak for the administra tion in this instance, said "the administration will make no ef fort to get the 'O' returned un less the students want it." The "O" was stolen on the night of Dec. 21 or morning of Dec. 22, from its location on Skinner Butte. A cutting torch was used to cut the 20- by 30 foot steel letter off its angle iron posts which were imbedded in concrete. Students from Oregon Slate University at Corvallis were, as usual suspected of making off with the letter. A black and orange banner, with the words "Terry Baker was here," was left at the scene. 'No Ground Swell' The huge letter was erected by UO students in 1958 at a cost of $500. "Interpreting the Emerald (university student newspaper) editorial and the lack of com ment," Ellingson said, "there is apparently no interest from the students. "There is certainly no ground swell of opinion among the stu dents," he said. Ellingson was contacted Fri day morning after a Eugene police follow-up report indicated that Ellingson and Ray Hawk, dean of men at the university, said they did not believe uni versity officials desired the re turn of the "0." 1 Aware of Plans?

Ivan Richards, assistant dean of men at OSU, said he was not aware of any further develop ments in the incident and doesn't "have any idea" who might have stolen the "0".

The council committee voted to recommend that a request for rezoning of two lots just north of Washburne Park be tabled for a month. The plan ning commission had recom mended a zoning change from R-l single-family to R-3G gar den apartment use. The council members split three-to-thrco on a motion to uphold the commission's denial of a request for a change of zone from R-l single-family to R-2 duplex use for property on the west side of Taylor Street at 17th Avenue. This means the issue will go to the next formal council meeting, Jan. 28, with out a committee recommenda tion. The council committee, which had toured the sites proposed for rezoning prior to its noon meeting, voted to uphold plan ning commission action on 10 other requests.
